gfx card is easy

GFX : 6800 GT ( 256 mb card, very fast bus and fast memory)
CPU : P4 3.2 or higher ( some AMD head help out here i don't know them that well)
MBD : something witha fast front side bus ( 833mhz or higher)
RAm : go dual channel so if going for 1 gig of ram make sure u get 2 x 512 sticks.

if you want specifics i could have a look around and give j00 a price and everything.

Nope, im my own man :p she just requires my attention when I see her, which is fair enough, its a bit rude to have her visit and I go on the comp doing stuff, when I shud be doing her ;) besides i like my GF and enjoy spending the time with her. I feel for guys who have their gf's nag and dictate, but then why would someone get invloved in that sort of relationship? :o
